Pastoral Autumn

Sunny skies, fresh snow, and lots of daylight convinced 4 parties, 10 people and one dog that Pastoral was the place to be.  Sunburst Trail was boney below timberline, but we survived most of it without incident and all of it without injury.  We embarked about 9:30 from the Sunburst parking area when the temperature was a chilly 3F.  Photos by Kruser.

We weren't the first.

But, we found the untracked experience.

Staubs and grass clumps were momentum busters.
